 * When uploading an image file the user is allowed to upload files not specified
   in the “Allowed file types” if they change “Customised Files” to “All Files”.
 * Have I got a setting wrong somewhere?
 * Any help appreciated.

 * No, you did correctly, but we are using HTML5 `accept` attribute which would 
   still allow customer to change `All Files` option.
 * But it it should fail on the server side, looks like some issue out there on 
   file validation, I will have a look.
